Furious 7

It was a little different watching this movie knowing that one of the main
characters had died in real life (Paul Walker).
Even how he died, crashing a high performance sports car like the ones in this
film, made it like there was something "more" to this than just a
normal movie. When it started, all I
could think about was the death of Paul every time he came on the screen. But, the more I watched, the more I was able
to get into the movie and allow myself to be distracted by the unbelievable,
over-the-top, almost ridiculous crazy stunts they were able to pull off and
cheat death over and over. There wasn't
much to the actual plot other than a guy wanting revenge for his brother, but
the plot isn't why people watch this series - they want to see fast cars and
action that could never actually happen in real life - and if that's what
someone is looking for, this movie definitely delivers! As the movie wound down, you could see it
turning into more of a Paul Walker tribute, which was nice. He has been a part of this movie series since
it started back in 2001, and it all seemed like a fitting way to allow everyone
- the actors and the viewer - a way to say "goodbye" to Paul and
thank him for his contribution to the movies and allow everyone to move
forward. It seems strange feeling that
way after a Fast and Furious movie, but I guess I do...
